Board committees
The Board is responsible for overall Group strategy, approval of property and corporate acquisitions and disposals, approval of substantial items of capital expenditure, and consideration of significant operational and financial matters. The Board has established both an Audit and Remuneration Committee. Given the small size of the Board, it is not considered necessary to establish a separate Nominations Committee.
Audit Committee The Audit Committee comprises the 3 Non-Executive Directors, W Wyatt, P London and I Stringer, and the Finance Director, by invitation. The committee oversees the adequacy of the Group’s internal controls, accounting policies and financial reporting and provides a forum through which the Group’s external auditor reports to the Non-Executive Directors.
Remuneration Committee The Remuneration Committee is made up of the 3 Non-Executive Directors and the Chief Executive, by invitation. The terms of reference of the Committee are to review and make recommendations to the Board regarding the terms and conditions of employment of the Executive Directors.

Description of business
Real Estate Investors Plc is a publicly quoted, internally managed property investment company and REIT with a portfolio of mixed-use commercial property. the portfolio is managed by REI’s highly-experienced property team with over 100 years of combined experience of operating in the Midlands property market, across all sectors.
The REI portfolio has no material reliance on any single asset, occupier or sector.
On 1st January 2015, the Company converted to a REIT. Real Estate Investment Trusts are listed property investment companies or groups not liable to corporation tax on their rental income or capital gains from their qualifying activities.
The Company announced in January 2024 that it would be undertaking an orderly strategic sale of the Company’s portfolio over three years, disposing of assets individually or collectively, at or above book value, to optimise returns to shareholders.
The pace of the disposal programme will be dictated by market conditions, with an initial focus on repaying the Company’s debt.
It is the Board’s intention to continue paying a fully covered quarterly dividend, subject to ongoing disposals.
